    Verdict

    CITY WALK took advantage of the drop in class and romped home over the slightly longer trip here last time. The Godolphin colt is taken to shrug off a hike in the weights with more to come from him. Coronation Cottage won a lower grade contest over track and trip recently but Celsius can figure back at this level having won at Haydock earlier. Ishvara went close at Ascot and is preferred to stablemate Grandfather Tom while Concierge wasn’t disgraced in the Stewards’ Cup and is preferred to Kodiak Attack having won off a similar mark on the all-weather. 4.30
